| sternocleidomastoid branch of occipital artery | <anatomy, artery> Branches of occipital artery to sternocleidomastoid muscle. One often hooks around hypoglossal nerve. It may arise as an independent branch of the external carotid, in which case it may be referred to as the sternomastoid artery. Synonym: rami sternocleidomastoidei arteriae occipitalis.

| sternocleidomastoid branch of superior thyroid artery | <anatomy, artery> Branch of superior thyroid artery to sternocleidomastoid muscle. Synonym: ramus sternocleidomastoideus arteriae thyroideae superioris. (05 Mar 2000) |
| stylohyoid branch of facial nerve | <anatomy, nerve> Branch of facial nerve to stylohyoid muscle. Synonym: ramus stylohyoideus nervi facialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superficial branch | Branch which passes above or closer to surface; usually in contrast to a deep branch. Synonym: ramus superficialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superficial branch of the lateral plantar nerve | <anatomy, nerve> Mostly cutaneous branch to skin of small and lateral half of fourth toes and lateral side of sole of foot, but also supplies the flexor digiti minimi brevis muscle and the most lateral dorsal and plantar interosseous muscles. Synonym: ramus superficialis nervi plantaris lateralis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superficial branch of the medial plantar artery | <anatomy, artery> Gives rise to superficial digital arteries of medial three toes. Synonym: ramus superficialis arteriae plantaris medialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superficial branch of the radial nerve | <anatomy, nerve> Cutaneous terminal branch (with deep branch) which runs under cover of brachioradialis muscle to wrist, then supplies skin of proximal portion of the dorsal aspects of thumb, index, middle and lateral half of ring fingers and the portion of the dorsum of the hand located proximally. Synonym: ramus superficialis nervi radialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superficial branch of the superior gluteal artery | <anatomy, artery> To upper gluteus maximus muscle. Synonym: ramus superficialis arteriae gluteae superioris. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superficial branch of the transverse cervical artery | <anatomy, artery> Branch of transverse cervical artery which accompanies the spinal accessory nerve on the deep surface of the trapezius muscle. Alternatively arises as a direct branch of the thyrocervical trunk, in which case it is called the superficial cervical artery. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superficial branch of the ulnar nerve | <anatomy, nerve> Branch supplying skin of palmar aspect of little and medial half of ring fingers, the portion of the palm proximal to them and the palmaris brevis muscle. Synonym: ramus superficialis nervi ulnaris. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superficial palmar branch of radial artery | <anatomy, artery> The superficial palmar branch of the radial artery which supplies the thenar muscles then enters the palm to communicate with the superficial palmar arch from the ulnar artery. Synonym: ramus palmaris superficialis arteriae radialis, superficial palmar artery, superficial volar artery, superficialis volae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superficial temporal branch of auriculotemporal nerve | Branches of auriculotemporal nerve to anterolateral scalp. Synonym: rami temporales superficiales nervi auriculotemporalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superior branch | Branch which is directed upward or cranially or which is highly-placed, usually in contrast to an inferior branch. Synonym: ramus superior. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superior branch of the oculomotor nerve | <anatomy, nerve> Branch of oculomotor nerve supplying the superior rectus and levator palpebrae superioris muscles. Synonym: ramus superior nervi oculomotorii. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superior branch of the pubic bone | A bar of bone, triangular in section, which extends posterosuperiorly from the body of the pubis to form the superior boundary of the obturator foramen; developmentally, it contributes about one-fifth of the articular surface of the acetabulum. Synonym: ramus superior ossis pubis, superior branch of the pubic bone. (05 Mar 2000) |
